Bacula can not load more than 1 volume in a storage device at a time
so your pool and volume policy prevent concurrency. To get around this
add more storage devices. And to ease the management of multiple
storage devices use the bacula vchanger to create a virtual disk
autochanger.

[Bacula-users] Concurrent client backups giving "waiting on Storage File" messages
I am trying to alter my Bacula configuration such that my backup jobs run
concurrently since sometimes a client can be offline and I want to have
Bacula wait up to 12 hours for that client to reappear without holding up
the whole queue of client jobs. As best as I can tell I've got everything
configured correctly but I still get "waiting on Storage File" status
messages for all clients except one. Only one client is running at a time,
although they all run successfully in sequential fashion.
I am using a removable hard drive for the backup media with one file per
client backup job. I have created separate pools, one per client, to ensure
that the right job matches up with the right backup file. Otherwise I found
that if an error occurred trying to start a backup of client #1, client #2
would use client #1's backup file, causing confusion since the backup files
are named after the client.
I am still running version 3.0.3 since 5.0 doesn't have Windows director and
storage binaries precompiled.
Hopefully I've provided enough background, including what I believe is all
of the relevant config info below. So how do I fix this "waiting on Storage
File" problem so I can get clients backing up concurrently?
Director config (including a representative pool definition - remember that
I have one pool per client)...

[Bacula-users] Bacula and Dell Powervault 124T
Hi I've got a Dell Powervault 124T connected to a new server using SAS. On the server I'm running CentOS 6 with Bacula 5.0.0 installed via YUM, the current setup can backup to File and restore. Now what I need to know, what is the first step to get the server to backup to tape. How to define the Tape changer and drive and where to define these things?

[Bacula-users] Bacula Dir Randomly Stopping
That helped get the console up, thanks!
Now I have another problem:
When attempting to run a backup, I get this error:
Storage daemon didn't accept Device "File-0" because:
3924 Device "File-0" not in SD Device resources.
27-Jul 13:10 * JobId 4: Error: Bacula * 5.0.3 (04Aug10): 27-Jul-2011

File-0 is a portable HDD attached to the director machine.
I have the device configured as follows:
bacula-sd.conf
#File-0 is the default storage area. Backups are placed in
/var/bacula/storage/file-0
Device {
Name = "File-0"
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /dev/sdb1
LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
RemovableMedia = yes;
AlwaysOpen = no;
}
bacula-dir.conf
Storage {
Name = File-0
Address = **
Password = **# password for Storage daemon
Device = "File-0"# same as Device in Storage daemon
Media Type = File# same as MediaType in Storage daemon

[Bacula-users] Problem with data encryption on windows client
Hello,
This is my first post on this forum and I need your help. I`ve searched
previous topics and I didn`t find solutions for my problem.
I`ve got a problem with configure data encryption via PKI. I attached current
client configuration.
I try to start with console and I receive:
ERROR TERMINATION at /home/kern/bacula/k/bacula/src/lib/parse_conf.c:971
Config error: Keyword "PKISignatures" not permitted in thi resource.
Perhaps you left the trailing brace off of the previous resource.
Does Bacula support data encryption via PKI on Windows? I also installed
OpenSSL on windows with MS Visual C++ 2008 Redistribute Package.
I`ve configured clients on linux with data encryption and I haven`t got any
problem on linux.
